These armadillo eggs are one of the best ideas I've seen recently. Spicy bratwurst sausage is molded around a jalapeno pepper stuffed with cream cheese to form an egg.

Servings: 12 TO 18

• 12 jalapeno peppers

• 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened

• Wilton Golden Yellow paste food coloring (or yellow food coloring)

• 3 pounds spicy bratwurst sausage, casings removed

• 17th Street Special All-Purpose Dressing, optional

1. Cut the stem ends off the jalapenos and use a small knife to cut the seeds out. Keep the peppers whole.

2. Put the cream cheese into a small bowl and use a toothpick to add a tiny bit of the paste food coloring (this paste is very concentrated, so a little goes a long way). Mix the coloring thoroughly into the cream cheese. Add more, if you need it, to achieve a bright golden color, like the yolk of an egg.

3. Transfer the cream cheese to a pastry bag fitted with a wide tip and pipe the cheese into the jalapenos. (You can make your own pastry bag by using a small zippered plastic bag and snipping off one corner.)

4. Divide the sausage into 12 pieces. Flatten each piece into a disk, place a filled jalapeno in the center, and wrap the sausage around it, pressing the edges to seal. Form the sausage into the shape of a large egg.

5. Smoke for 1 1/2 hours at 250 degrees.

6. Slice to serve. The slices will resemble sliced hard-cooked eggs, with the colored cream cheese looking like the yolk. Serve with the dressing, if desired.
